Bragging Rights

It is rare that I devote a post to my personal life, but the last week I have been so absorbed and focused with the birth of a new grandson. Jeanette gave birth to Cade Maurice Fischer around 1:20 PM on Tuesday, the 12th. This is her first picture holding Cade just a few minutes after he was born. This is one of the first family photos. Lincoln gets introduced to his new baby brother, Cade. There is nothing like holding your newborn grandchild, holding your cheek against theirs and staring at their tiny little features, hands, and fingers. I am always amazed at the miraculous creation of a child. I know the next time I see him, most likely in the fall, he will be totally different and blossoming into his own unique personality. It is always so hard to leave.... I will be back in my shop, The Purple Pear on Wednesday morning. I will not be open on Tuesday as I usually am, and I apologize for this. I would love to bring you anything you need if you came by the store, and I missed you. I will also be getting the new Chalk Paint™ decorative paint color, Florence, in the shop very soon. It is an exquisite, exotic color. I already have a project in mind. Looking forward to getting back and organizing my workshops and getting them going again. I also have a new website that is almost ready to be launched. See you soon!
